Chapter 679: Chapter 438 Can Get Along With_1

Feng Yi’s room was particularly lively at the moment.

There were too many people; the door couldn’t even close, so it was left wide open. After all, Feng Yi had nothing to hide.

Ms. Yin and Little Gong were both laughing and crying upon confirming that the dragon-phoenix bracelet in Feng Yi’s hand was indeed the one they had dropped by accident.

Both were very disheveled, one with clothes in disarray, the other with makeup smeared by tears, neither bothering to tidy up at that moment.

Due to the massive fluctuations in their emotions, their faces were flushed red with excitement.

Catching that bracelet was like saving half their lives!

After expressing their gratitude repeatedly, Little Gong clung to Feng Yi, insisting on having a proper drink to celebrate.

"No need, no need, I’ve made plans to go diving and I’m about to leave. You two... um, take some rest. Take good care of your valuables."

If someone else had spoken to them this way, the two proud and temperamental young adults might have snapped back, but this time they were too grateful to Feng Yi to do anything but repeatedly say "yes."

A guest watching the commotion from the doorway said, "You’d better keep that thing safe, don’t flash it around on your wrist again, or if it really falls into the sea, good luck finding someone to retrieve it!"

Feng Yi thought to himself: Me.

During an abnormal weather period, granny had even organized a salvage team that retrieved quite a lot of property from the sea.

As the onlookers who had come for the show turned their attention back to Feng Yi, they asked about how he had caught the bracelet. They were too curious: was that even a human reaction speed?

"Actually... I was leaning on the balcony railing, enjoying the view, when I suddenly felt something fall from above. It was a reflex to grab it, and luckily, I really did catch it," explained Feng Yi.

With his excellent dynamic vision and fast reflexes, he had managed to grab an object that fell straight down into his hands.

Initially, he thought someone was littering into the sea until he looked at what he had caught: a gold bracelet studded with various gems.

These two really knew how to create a scene, even managing to drop such a valuable item.

The others found Feng Yi’s explanation believable; after all, there weren’t just one or two people upstairs who had witnessed the entire event. Besides this explanation, they couldn’t think of any other.

"It’s no wonder you can catch snakes with that hand, such fast reflexes!"

"And really good luck too."

"Haha, Little Gong’s earth-shattering cry for ’Daddy’ earlier was absolutely worth it!"

"Hee hee, I recorded a video!"

Little Gong: ... Thank you all very much!

Upon hearing that Feng Yi was going diving, the others, having finished their gossip, left one after another to chatter with those who had missed the excitement.

Feng Yi arrived at the agreed spot with the guests who were going diving; two young men were already waiting there.

When Feng Yi approached, the others shook hands with him.

"He Yuanfan."

"Zhou Hao."

Feng Yi knew He Yuanfan, who had gone out racing last night, although they hadn’t really talked.

Zhou Hao hadn’t gone racing yesterday; he had only arrived at the hotel that morning.

The three of them didn’t talk about personal matters but discussed taking a boat out for diving soon.

"This sea area has whale sharks. If we’re lucky, we might encounter them," said He Yuanfan, fiddling with his filming equipment, full of anticipation.

Zhou Hao was purely curious and wanted to see for himself, so he’d brought his filming equipment as well.

Both looked towards Feng Yi.

Feng Yi seemed to have come by himself.

"I’m just here to have fun diving," said Feng Yi.

He Yuanfan nodded. He didn’t care how others chose to enjoy themselves. He went on to talk about the dive: "I’ve filmed whale sharks in aquariums before, but I still prefer the wild ones out in open waters."

While they chatted, a small boat approached, the crew ready to help with the preparations for their dive.

They changed into diving suits, geared up, and the group left on the small boat.

There was an auction later that evening, but there was plenty of time now to play.

The so-called preparations involved someone dropping bait in a specific area to draw fish, making it easier for guests to watch and film. At the same time, they had to be cautious of other potentially dangerous fish approaching and had to be ready for other emergencies.

After the small boat had traveled some distance, Feng Yi and the other two guests dived into the water, followed by five bodyguards. In addition, there were security personnel arranged by the Wang family patrolling the area.

Feng Yi swam at a controlled pace in the water, enjoying the view as the other two tried different poses to photograph the fish.

It was unclear if it was because of the bait or predators like tuna chasing the fish schools, but the number of fish around them kept increasing.

Feng Yi looked in a certain direction and signaled to the others — a large fish was approaching!

The nearby security team also sent a signal shortly thereafter.

A large fish, but not a dangerous one.

He Yuanfan got excited and looked in the direction of the fish.

Soon, a huge silhouette appeared.

The dark-bodied fish, speckled with light spots, slowly swam towards them.

He Yuanfan gestured for the bodyguards to back off a bit so as not to crowd and scare away the big fish.

Zhou Hao was also thrilled. Facing a sea fish the size of a bus was indeed overwhelming, and he followed He Yuanfan to get closer for a shot.

A whale shark!

It’s a whale shark!

A slow-moving, gentle filter feeder.

Pandas are not cats, whale sharks are not whales.

Though it’s a shark and large in size, the nickname "gentle giant" gives away its style.

Some people think they are too silly, belying the intimidation associated with the word "shark."

The whale shark in front of us is about ten meters long, resembling a large bus.

Zhou Hao, with his filming equipment, snapped away frantically, not feeling satisfied just shooting from the side. Seeing He Yuanfan so close without any trouble, he swam to the front of the whale shark, planning to get a good shot before swimming away.

But unexpectedly, the school of fish suddenly turned, and the unprepared and inexperienced Zhou Hao got a faceful, causing some panic.

When the school cleared, he saw the enormous fish head and its gaping mouth.

No matter how gentle a giant is, it’s still a giant!

With such a huge mouth coming his way, Zhou Hao was stunned at the moment.

In extreme fear, he hardly had time to react. Even the closest bodyguard couldn’t catch up.

Just when Zhou Hao thought he was going to have a close encounter with this "gentle giant," a figure rushed from the side and pulled him away.

Feng Yi grasped Zhou Hao with one hand and pressed against the approaching big fish head with the other.

Watch where you’re going, big guy!

The whale shark continued its leisurely swim away.

Looking dopey and not very smart.

Due to the scare, Zhou Hao had no desire to continue filming and simply watched He Yuanfan shoot the fish, occasionally glancing curiously over at Feng Yi.

Once the group returned to the dinghy.

Zhou Hao sat gasping for air, not speaking a word, but he raised his hand toward Feng Yi to express his gratitude. After a while, he said to Feng Yi,

"Thanks for just now, buddy! If there’s anything I can help you with in the future, don’t hesitate to let me know!"

He Yuanfan also said, "Thank you, Feng Yi."

He Yuanfan’s bodyguard had told him that in the water, another bodyguard was also disrupted by the school of fish and almost got smacked by the whale shark’s tail. It was Feng Yi who pushed him away.

Seeing it was getting late, the group returned to the large yacht.

Zhou Hao’s room was close to He Yuanfan’s, and they were on different floors from Feng Yi, so they did not go with Feng Yi.

Now, the two of them also talked about Feng Yi, as they were more familiar with each other, the conversation was more relaxed without others around.

Zhou Hao, recalling the diving incident that nearly caused him harm, was still somewhat shaken.

"I was frickin’ close to peeing myself!" His voice still trembled.

It was his first time filming large fish up close, and he almost got knocked flying by one, which was a huge mental shock.

"That thing could have swallowed me whole! And even if it couldn’t fit me in its mouth, a ’face hug’ from it would be more than I could handle; probably feels like hitting a wall. If I got nudged by it, I’d have to be carried back."

He Yuanfan also said, "Feng Yi is someone you can count on."

Zhou Hao added, "Right, he’s so strong, and he was incredibly fast at that moment! I think his results would be excellent if he competed in world-class swimming competitions."

He Yuanfan agreed, "The physical condition of the experts from the Union Protective Agency is really impressive!"

They returned to hear about how Feng Yi had caught the falling dragon and phoenix bracelet upstairs.

"I only heard people online praising him before, but now I’ve really experienced his strength."

"His motor skills are too developed!"

"I wonder how he trained them."

Feng Yi was unaware of the praise being heaped upon him; he had already returned to his room.

Outside the window, the sunlight over the sea was gradually setting.

Ordering a meal to his room, he dined on the balcony while admiring the sunset over the sea.

He took a few nice photos of the seascape, then got ready for the evening auction.

There were at least two guests interested in the black diamond, and that’s just those he had heard about; there were likely others among the rest of the guests.

If he was sure the black diamond was what he wanted, he could bid a bit more money, as long as the auction price didn’t get too ridiculous.

With this in mind, Feng Yi changed into the formal wear that the butler had prepared. Jia had just delivered the clothing and accessories.

For an auction like this, where everyone else was dressed to the nines, he couldn’t afford to look too shabby. But the butler’s style was always a bit too flamboyant.

Feng Yi, tidied and dressed, stepped out to see Feng Chi in his flashy outfit.

"...What are you wearing?"

"I’m here to set the mood, man!"

For a more private event like this, without any celebrity to warm up the crowd, this time, guest Feng Chi, a guy from the entertainment industry with a strong desire to perform, volunteered for the job. Wang Xuqin had agreed as well.

"What are you performing?" Feng Yi was somewhat traumatized by this guy’s performances, fearing he would go on stage and wildly swing streamers.

"Singing!"

Feng Chi, thinking his brother was worried for him, said, "Don’t worry, I’m prepared, and I’ll definitely energize the atmosphere!"
